🔥 Steps for a melt-in-your-mouth Air Fryer pork roast
Take the roast out of the fridge 15 minutes beforehand so it's not too cold (this will help it cook more evenly). Peel and slice the garlic into thin strips. With a knife, make a few incisions in the roast and insert the garlic strips. Rub the roast with olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbes de Provence. Let it marinate if you can; it's even better that way! 😍
Preheat your Air Fryer to 180°C for 3 minutes. Place the roast in the basket, on a sheet of parchment paper or a wire rack if you prefer a lighter sauce. Arrange the vegetables around it if you're adding them. Spray a little oil on top for browning ✨.
Cook for approximately 30 to 35 minutes (for 800g). Turn halfway through cooking to brown both sides. For pink and ultra-tender meat, the thermometer should read 68-70°C at the internal temperature (if you want to know more, read this guide to cooking roast pork ).
Once it's out of the oven, wrap your roast in aluminum foil and let it rest for 10 minutes. It will finish cooking gently and retain all its juices. The result: tender meat that doesn't release all its water when you slice it 🤩!
🤫 Tips & variations for a perfect Air Fryer pork roast
- Spices: You can flavor your roast with cumin, smoked paprika or a little honey for an irresistible caramelized crust 🍯.
- Tender meat: Choose the loin rather than the fillet: it remains more tender after cooking.
- Vegetables: Add apple wedges or prunes around the roast for an amazing sweet and savory version 🍏.
- Batch cooking: This roast keeps very well for 3 days in the fridge, perfect for lunchboxes!
❓ FAQ – Everything you need to know about roast pork in the Air Fryer

Should I baste the roast before cooking?
Yes, massage it well with olive oil and spices. This protects the meat and promotes a beautiful golden crust.
Should the roast be turned over during cooking?
Yes, for even browning and consistent cooking, turn it over halfway through. You can also baste it with the juices for an extra touch of indulgence.
